Category:Bays of North Ayrshire

Hi @Le Deluge: What happened to the above category that was deleted? I am working on List of bays of Scotland. scope_creepTalk 13:31, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

@Scope creep: Nothing - it never existed in the first place. But per WP:REDNOT you should never add red-linked categories to an article. And while I do create thousands of red-linked categories, I also tend towards avoiding WP:OVERCATEGORISATION so often bump articles up to the next level. A good category has 30+ members, not one or two. Feel free to help out at Special:WantedCategories to see what we're up against... Le Deluge (talk) 15:19, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
@Le Deluge:I understand. I know what your up against. I cannot get my head around them at all. It should be simple, but it's not. I must have missed it. There should be at least that many e.g. in Argyll and Bute bays. There is a mountain full of large bays in that area. I will keep it simple as possible. scope_creepTalk 15:31, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

[Thank you for the ping] No worries. I'm going to merge your MFD nominations first since you've already put in the effort. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 17:04, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
Okay, that has now been done. All the separate nominations can now be discussed at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Pinehouse Photography Club articles by quality statistics. I'll refrain from nominating any further pages for speedy deletion until that discussion gets finished.
Also, again don't worry about the small mistake. MFD is a weird place, and it isn't like AFD (which I imagine you kind of thought it was like). We try to have as few duplicate discussions as possible if we know they are going to result in the same arguments, and if something should obviously be kept or speedied, folks try to see that happen sooner than later. You did a good job in finding out about these dud pages regardless though~!! –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 17:24, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

When you tag empty categories for deletion, please notify the category creator, as you are notified when a category you created is up for deletion. It's an important step and, if you use Twinkle and you set your Twinkle Preferences to notify page creators for CSD C1s, these notifications happen automatically and take no effort on your part.

Bratislava

Thank you for the delete though I would not categorize it as a test but rather a typo, it should just be without "In Slovakia", so perhaps it should be moved instead (if not existing prior)?--Jetam2 (talk) 05:28, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

@Jetam2: Well the fact that you put the country and the region in the name together (and didn't copy the capitalisation of the other region categories) told me that you weren't very familiar with the category system, and marking it as a test is a quick way to remove it. It's a general principle that to reduce WP:OVERCATEGORISATION and needless duplication, we often end up having just one level of categories where the region and city are more or less the same and I must admit, I assumed that this was another example of this common situation. Now I've looked it in more detail, it seems there's a significant amount of the region that's not in the city - but the non-city population is in relatively small towns like Malacky. So I'd suggest that the best way would be to mostly have categories to cover the whole region and only have categories for Bratislava city in cases where there's a category for another town like Malacky. So for instance, I'd move Category:Transport in Bratislava to Category:Transport in Bratislava Region (transport tends to operate on a regional level anyway), whereas I'd keep Category:Sport in Bratislava and Category:Sport in Malacky as subcategories of Category:Sport in Bratislava Region. It's a bit complicated, but does that make sense? Le Deluge (talk) 13:44, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

@LeDeluge Maybe on en.wiki I am les experienced as I operate mostly on sk.wiki. Had you checked out the discussion page for the category you would know that I had realized the typo and suggested a move. In terms of the categorization itself: specifically for Bratislava I would keep it since it is both the capital and the biggest city in Slovakia. Malacky, Senec, Svätý Jur et al are smaller towns in absolute terms but in Slovakia's context not insignificant. The respective categories on sk.wiki and Commons are quite populated so I would suggest to keep them separate here too. Happy 2020! Jetam2 (talk) 14:14, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Orphaned Pages

First, thank you for identifying orphaned subpages. Second, please do not tag them for MFD if you are planning to tag them for G8. If you are planning to tag them for G8, please avoid spending the time of the MFD regulars on them. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:31, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

@Robert McClenon: Sorry about that - I hadn't realised they were G8-able, so did one retrospectively, and will just do straight G8s from now on.Le Deluge (talk) 18:32, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
No problem. Thanks for cleaning up debris. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:44, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

Edits of the page of Apartment List

Hi Le Deluge,

I noticed that yesterday you reverted my edits on the page of Apartment List. All the changes were good-faith edits including fact correction, removal of redundant data and update of information, all backed up by appropriate citations found online. I have also observed that you look into 'Categories' which was an issue on the page but since that looked like a suspicious attempt by one of the editors - Malikmajid221, I left it as is for the moderators to review.

I would appreciate if you could please revert back to my version of the data by just changing the categories so that all facts are presented as per the recent citations I found and provided to update the encyclopedia. Thanks. --Talkman45 (talk) 14:51, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
